Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for connecting sheathed lines for telephones and data communications.
  • the task of the present invention is to create a device for connecting sheathed lines for telephones and data communication, which eliminates the deficiencies of the known state of the art and allows all diameters for contacts between braided and foil sheaths of sheathed lines which are suitable for high frequency, and with the simplest handling possible without tools, and without requiring stripping, and with strain relief in a way which saves space.
  • a metallic ground plate with supports on a printed circuit board, etc. has one bent-back tongue which forms a contact spike for frontal insertion into a sheathed line or cable between its sheath and cover.
  • a second tongue is located at a distance from and at least nearly parallel to the contact spike which forms a trough for supporting the cable and which can be bent towards the contact spike by stripping the cable with a cable binder.
  • Optimum sheath contact with regard to high frequency is created in this way, whereby the coaxial arrangement of sheath contact and cable binder requires only a small amount of space for assembly. Moreover, tightening the cable binder simultaneously flattens the contact spike on the sheath, thereby ensuring wide-area contact. At the same time, the contact point is protected under the cable cover.
  • FIG. 1 is a diagram of the one-piece device for connecting sheathed lines.
  • FIG. 2 is the arrangement according to FIG. 1, with a sheathed line.
  • the cable binder 8 is run between the lateral limits 9 of the trough 3.
  • the joint of the contact spike 2 or the trough 3 can comprise an elastic zone 15 for the purpose of adaptation to various thicknesses of cable covers.
  • a further embodiment is possible with at least one cable lug tongue 4 extending laterally from the ground plate and a catch 5 for a shroud connection which is bent away from the ground plate laterally (not shown).
  • the device is configured as one piece.
